death or serious injury.

CAUTION

This indication alerts you to the

fact that any improper use

ignoring the contents described

herein can result in injury.

Note

The items contained in this

section alert you to the fact that

any improper use ignoring the

contents described herein may

cause property damage or may

negatively affect product

performance and functionality.

• Do not leave the binoculars in an

unstable place. They may fall and

cause injury.

• Do not look through the binoculars

while walking. You may walk into

unexpected objects and get hurt.

• Do not swing the binoculars by

their straps. They may hit

someone and cause injury.

• If you use the binoculars for a long

period of time, the rubber eyecups

may cause skin irritation. If you

CONTENTS

PRECAUTIONS ...........................7

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ............7

OPERATION PRECAUTIONS ..... 8

OPERATION ................................ 9

• Keep the polyethylene bag used

for packaging out of the reach of

small children. It may block their

mouths and noses and cause

suffocation.

• Be careful that small children do

not inadvertently swallow the

cap or eyecup. If it does happen,

consult a doctor immediately.

• Do not disassemble the

binoculars. Repair should be

referred to a Nikon authorized

service representative.

OPERATION PRECAUTIONS

Note

OPERATION AND CONTROLS

• Do not open the right and left

binocular tubes beyond their

limits. Also be careful not to

rotate the diopter ring, focusing

ring and zoom lever (ring)

beyond their limits.

• Avoid rain, water splashes, sand

and mud. With waterproof/

water-resistant binoculars,

though some rain or water splash

will do no harm,

wipe the water

off as soon as possible. To

confirm if your binoculars are

waterproof/water-resistant or

not, check the instruction

manual of the product you

purchased.

• Do not subject the binoculars to

physical shock. If you

accidentally apply strong shock

or drop them and the image is

not normal, or if they are

submerged in water,

immediately contact the dealer

where you purchased them or a

Nikon authorized service

representative.

• If you enter a warm room from a

cold outdoor environment, the

lens surfaces may temporarily

become clouded due to sudden

temperature changes. In this

case, let them dry until the

moisture disappears naturally.

• The soft case, strap, and external

materials utilized on binoculars

and rubber eyecups may

deteriorate due to aging and

stain clothes. To prevent this,

check their condition before

each use, and consult with a

Nikon authorized service

representative if such

deterioration is found.

STORAGE

• Water condensation or mold

may occur on lens surfaces

because of high humidity.

Therefore, store the binoculars in

a cool, dry place. After use on a

rainy day or at night, thoroughly

dry them at room temperature,

then store in a cool, dry place.

• For long term storage, keep

binoculars in a plastic bag or an

airtight container with a

desiccant. If this is not possible,

store in a clean, well-ventilated

place, separate from the case, as

they are easily affected by

moisture.

• Do not leave the binoculars in a

car on a hot or sunny day, or near

heat generating equipment. This

may damage or negatively affect

them.

MAINTENANCE & STORAGE

• Remove dust trapped in the

focusing unit, diopter adjustment

unit, or other rotating parts with a

soft brush.

• After having removed dust with a

blower, clean the body surface using

a soft, clean cloth. After use at the

seaside, lightly soak a soft, clean

cloth with water and wipe off salt

that may be on the body surface.

Then wipe the body surface with a

dry cloth. Do not use benzene,

thinner, or other organic solvent.

Note: A blower is rubber

cleaning tool that strongly blows

out air from a nozzle.

• When removing dust on the lens

surface, use a soft oil-free brush.

• When removing stains or smudges

like fingerprints from the lens

surfaces, wipe the lenses very gently

with a soft clean cloth. Use a small

quantity of pure alcohol (ethanol) or

lens cleaner available in stores to

wipe stubborn smudges, from the

center of the lens to the outside in a

circular motion. Do not use anything

hard as it may scratch the lens

surface.

OPERATION

Place your eyes in the right

position

Look into the eyepieces and use the

binoculars in a position where

vignetting does not occur (no shadows

around the field of view).

Models with adjustable eyepieces

Use the binoculars in the retracted state

when wearing eyeglasses, and in the

extended state with naked eyes.

Adjusting interpupillary distance

Match the distance between right and

left eyepiece tubes with your

interpupillary distance by moving the

tubes apart or closer together.

Merge the two circular viewfields into

one.

Diopter adjustment

(Balancing right and left eyesight)

* With the focus correctly adjusted,

remember the diopter index position for

easier future diopter adjustment.

* For focusing with the diopter adjustment

ring or focusing ring, rotate clockwise to

focus on a distant subject, or

counterclockwise for a nearby subject.

Depending on the type of binoculars,

the adjustment method differs as

follows.

nCF: Central focusing binoculars

Binoculars with the diopter adjustment

ring on the right eyepiece.

Rotate the focusing ring until you obtain

a sharp image of your subject through

the left eyepiece with your left eye.

2 Rotate the diopter adjustment ring

of the right eyepiece until you

obtain a sharp image of the same

subject through the right eyepiece

with your right eye.

3 Check focusing on both eyes.

When you view a different subject,

adjust the focusing ring until you obtain

a sharp image.

Binoculars with the diopter

adjustment ring on the left eyepiece

(some models of zoom binoculars).

1 Set the zoom lever at the

maximum magnification

position.

Rotate the focusing ring until

you obtain a sharp image of your

subject through the right

eyepiece with your right eye.

Rotate the diopter adjustment

ring of the left eyepiece until you

obtain a sharp image of the

same subject through the left

eyepiece with your left eye.

4 Check focusing on both eyes.

When you view a different subject,

adjust the focusing ring until you

obtain a sharp image.

nIF: Individual focusing binoculars

For individual focusing binoculars,

diopter adjustment is basically

unnecessary.

1 Focus right and left eyes

separately.

Focus the right and left eyes one by

one when you change the subject.

Note: For zoom binoculars

When viewing the subject at a

different magnification, first

correctly adjust focusing at a higher

magnification. This minimizes

blurring, which may occur when

you change magnification.

* If you adjust the focus at a low

magnification, there is more blurring

when you change to a high

magnification.

• Nitrogen-filled design makes them resistant to condensation and mold.

Observe the following when using these products:

• The binoculars cannot be used underwater. Also, do not subject it to strong water pressure such as

from running water.

• Any moisture should be wiped off before adjusting movable parts (focusing knob, eyepiece, etc.) of

these products to prevent damage and for safety reasons.

To keep your binoculars in excellent condition, regular servicing by authorized dealer is recommended.

About the manual

• No part of the manual may be reproduced, transmitted, transcribed, stored in a retrieval system, or
